The rich, fruity notes of olives grown in the fertile soils of Napa Valley are elevated to new heights through the delicate infusion of smoke. This combination offers a tantalizing glimpse into the sun-soaked landscapes that give birth to this exceptional oil.

Chili and Whisky Smoked Brown Sugar Glaze:

Transform ordinary dishes into gourmet delights with a glaze made from chili and whisky-smoked brown sugar. This dynamic duo adds depth and complexity to grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and even desserts. The smoky sweetness of the brown sugar, imbued with the warmth of chili and the subtle tang of whisky, creates a symphony of flavors that dance on the palate.

Smoked Olive Oil Vinaigrette:

Elevate your salads to new heights with a smoked olive oil vinaigrette. Whisk together Napa olive oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper for a dressing that’s both robust and nuanced. Drizzle it over mixed greens, grilled vegetables, or even fresh seafood for a taste of the Mediterranean with a smoky twist.

Smoked Brown Sugar Rub:

Infuse your favorite cuts of meat with the irresistible flavor of smoked brown sugar. Mix brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a touch of salt and pepper to create a versatile rub that’s perfect for grilling, roasting, or slow cooking. Whether you’re barbecuing ribs, roasting chicken, or searing salmon, this rub adds a depth of flavor that’s sure to impress.
